“X am positively afraid your are a

fair field it’s you, and bare von nctn
ally admit to mo yon’re—afraid that
protty little Elsie llose will refuse

Allaire ibrngged bis handsome
shoulders.
“Snpposo she should though I"
“ lint I tell yon she won’t," Ches

all theso things now-n-days" (Mr.
Conrtland Chester had been just
year married) “and I am pretty well
posted in tbe signs. If yon don't be
lieve mo ask Elsio herself."
“ I—couldn’t do it," Allaire an
swered, with a little look of horror.
I never heard of sneb nonsense.
Yon have made np your uiiud then
have you to spcuil the rest, of your
days in stnpid singleness and lone*
someness?"
Which remark ccrtsinly argued
well for pretty littlo Mrs Chester's
loveliness and agrocablcness.
No, I won't say that,” Allaire an-
swir-.-d, anxionsly.
"Then what aro yon going to do
about it? Yon can’t ask Miss Rose,
yon don’t mean to reinniu a bachelor
•you don't expect she will proposo
to yon, do yon ?"
“ I wish she would," Allaire said so
promptly and forvontly that Chester
laughed heartily as h< rose from Ida
chair and picked up his list’
“ What a fellow you are, Allaire !"
"And what a beastly wretch yon
are!" Allaire retorted, half laughing,
half vexed, rising too. “Put oil your
hat, all tbe same, though, am) let’s go
down to tbu Bazar for an hoar. Lots
of pretty girls and icc-erenm nod so
da."
Her bine eyes lighted up like lamps j transformed our shy, awkward, stu-

hurridly red, and actually forgetting
whether it was morning or afternoon.
Elsie o|teued her lilne eyes wonder-
iagly.
Why—is it warm ? Wo all have
keen congratulating ourselves on tbe
delightful coolness of tho aftornoou.”
Ho was snro ho blushed furiously
then.
" Yes, that's what I mount to sny,”
be said, nwkwardly. “ I'll take one of
thoso big boxes of candy, please.”
" What kind would yon prefer, Mr.
Allaire ? Caramels, vanilla and lem
on, cream, chocolate, roso, vanilla, or
ange and strawberry, assorted bon
bons—which, plonse ?”
She smiled charmingly in his per
plexed face.
“ Oh—I'll have a box of each," bo
said, desperately, and laid dowu a
twcnty-dullar bill, wondering whether
it would pay for llieui.
Elsio Hindu up 11 ponderous package
with quick, deft skill, and turned to
make tbe change.
4' Never mind, Miss Elsie—tho San
itarium fund is welcome.
And then from sheer confusion and
awkwardness that disgusted himself,
he went away, taking his lug par-
eel, mid wondering what on oarth
he wunld do with it, while Elsie, with
a clouded look m her eyes, woudored

Ho that Mr. Richard Allaire, forty,
a bachelor, wealthy, good looking,

sio Rose, and strangely diffident
whore she was concerned, had tbo
pleasure of going alone to tho mam
moth Buznr ill the mammoth tent on
tho sands—the grand fancy Bazar got
ton np by the Indies in the various
seaside hotels fur tho benefit of the
Children's .Sanitarium.
It certainly was nut an undesirable
place iii which to spend ail hour or so
—wiiIi the pretty girls, tho pleasant
excitement, ilio chntter of merry voic
tlie sound of thundering waves,
the crisp, salty freshuoss of tbo south
breeze—and Mr. Allaire roalizod wbat
it was to be a rich, good-nntared
bachelor, if be never had appreciated
bis position before, ere bo bad been
tbreo seconds inside tbo tent.
“Oh, its Mr. Allaire I I've been
looking and waiting for yon for two
honrs, Mr. Allaire 1 There's only fivo
More chances, at a dollar a chance, in
tbe lovely wax flowers on my table,

Of course, when port, pretty littlo

imperiously to her, to be confidently

grand lottery for tho gold horse shoe

Of course Mr. Allaire took his

hour's reading in ono of tbo little
summer bouses.
And there be joined her, to be met
with a delicious little flush of sur

“Good morning Mr. Allaire," she
said gladly. “ Isn’t the sen breeze re
markably eat ly to-day ? I am so glad
it promises to be pleasant again for
our Bazar. Come iu and sit down

Elsiu's heart gave a rapturous little
thrill that sent tho warm blood lo her

der happy light dime to her bluo eyes,

said gontly, encouragingly, her whole
heart so thankfnl, that, at last, her

Then I may be made very happy
by yoar acceptance of it ?’’ bo asked,
eagerly. “ Would yon really care for

Then the happy tears camo into her

Tbe young lawyer conducting bis

Whilo tbo prosecuting nttornoy is ty
ing tbo first witness into bowknots

sits listening, bnt endeavoring to look
as nnconcernod as a marble statuo in

ruled by tbo court, bo pnts on a stern
look, as mnoh ns to say, “I’ll knock
the wind out of that in tho Supreme

rant trembles a littlo and ondeavors
to swallow something that is sticking

He fires a few initiatory questions
at tbe witness, and warms ns bo pro

by, “Your Honor, we object to such
irrelevant questions,” followed by a
few scathing remarks from tkc prose-
cutor. Tbe conrt sustains tbo objoc

against the accused warrants a vordict
of “not guilty," whereupon tho ama
teur grasps his client’s hand and

•YilAT DARK TUESDAY.

At Potano, Arizona, Wcdesday af
ternoon, tbo brakes of a flat car load
ed with ties became loosoned in somo
inexplicable mamior, and the car bo-
gan to movo down tbo stoop grade to
wards Cienegn. A bystander jumped
aboard and oudenvored to tighten the
brakes. Ho, however, found thorn un
manageable. Another triod nud
failod. A regular brakesman then
boarded tho car and quickly discov
ered that tho brakes wore out of or-
dor. Tho car by that timo had in
creased its speed to fully twenty miles
nn hour, nnd to romniu upou it would
be almost sure death wliou tho fire*
washout was reached. lie therefore
ealled.to tho other two on tho ear to

Shaw at this time was sitting on his

If the President’s journey bad not
absorbed pnblio attention and made
Tuesday famous, that day would
donbtloss have been long remembered
in many localities for strange atmos
pheric phenomena. In many parts
of tho East and in Canadn, tbo day
was so dark that it was impossible to
got along without artificial light. Tbo
most singular effect thus for reported
were in Troy and Springfield, Mosb,,
Providenco, R. I., Boston and Toron
to. In Springfield several largo man
ufactories susuendod work, reading
aud studying were abandoned in somo
of tbo pnblio schools, and in hundreds
of shops and bonsos tbe gas jets bnrn-
od with a peculiar bright light. In
Toronto great fear of somo tcrriblo
calamity disturbed tho pcaco of timid
aud superstitious souls. At five v. u.
tbo sky presented tbe appearance of
an orango domo of extraordinary
beauty. As sunset approached tho
orango buo deepened over sky and
eity, nftd tbo streets were filled with
poople gazijg nt tbo wierd spectacle.
In every place where tho unnsaal
phenomenon wna conspicuous, people
rccnllcd tho stories of tho famous
'dark day” about ono hundred yoars
ago, whon business was suspended,
candles mado only aslightimprossion
on tho unusual gloom, and unreason
ing roosters announced at noon-day a
fictitious dawn. Even tbo advanced
knowledge of to-dny, whilo it laagbs
at superstitions fears, and rightly at
tributes to natural conditions such
strnngo appearances as thoso of Tues
day, cannot givo a vory satisfactory
account of tbo causes which produces
them.

know whether ho is a practicing attor
ney with n gilt sign, or a fly-wheel on

out of qnostious, and with a sigh of
relief or something of that sort ho
tells tbo witness “ that’s all." So bo
grinds through, aud at Inst the proso-
cutor rises nnd proceeds to address
tbo jury iu a masterly Btylc. As lio
progresses bo picks Up tbo evidence
adduced by tbo defense into particles
flue ouongh to bo incorporated into

stono wrestler begins to feel uneasy
os bis mind reverts to the fact that in
a few moments bo must deliver his
maiden speech
He wishes the prosecutor would
hold hie grip end keep it-until lima
to adjourn court, feeling satisfied that
ho could mako a splendid speech the
next day after a night’s fighting on
the ovidonco. Ho tries to remember
wbat tbo witnesses swore to, bnt can
not recall tho evidence to ssve his
life. Tbe proeecator finally winds up
with a grand peroration, and ns ho
says, “And ill conclusion, goutlcmcn

gers Ilia monstnebe, and wishes ho
had never bognn the nbominnblc bus
iness. Cold chills are fingering him
all over the back, as if measuring bim
for a now shirt, and his spinal column
acta like it was tired and wanted to
■it down awhile. Liko Binquo’s
ghost, tho lump in his throat won’t
etny down by a largo majority, and he
swallows it nnd wonders what lie is
going to any and how long it will take
him to say it. As the prosecutor
calmly takes bis scat, tho yonng law
yer risos nnd moves to tho front. He
■larea not look at tho audience, and
tries to imagine there is no one in tlie
room but himself and tin- twelve
sphynx-like forms iu tbe jury box —
Tlie eyes of each juror is fixed upon
bim, and he would almost rcliiiqnuh
bis hope of heaven if some one would
raise a cry of fire lo divert their atten
tion until be gets a start.
Finally be shrugs bis shoulders and
manages to remark, “Gentlemen of

As thoso thoughts Dashed through
his miud, he pulled wide open tbo
throttle-valve, and started in pursuit
of the fast recoding car. It was n
raco for lifo, and Shaw was soon
thundering down tho track at sixty
miles nn hour, with tho carload of
Chinamen behind him. The flat car
abend was increasing iu speed nt ev
ery turn of tho wheels and tho grndo
there is very stoop. Tho locomotive,
however, kept gaining nud Dually
Shaw, placing tho lover in charge of
his firomnn, crawled to tho cowcatcher
and taking tho heavy coupling rod in
his hand, stood iu that perilous posi
tion until tho car was reached. The
chasm where tho men were working
oatuo in sight and still the fugitive
car was 200 yards away. He culled
to his fireman toopou wider the valve,
and the laboring engine made a lurch
thnt showed she hud felt the increased
volume of steam. They sped on with
lightning rapidity. Tho space be
tween them gradually lessened. Shaw
stood with the rod in*oue band and
tho coupling-pin in the other. Fi
nally the fow feet intervening disap
peared, and with a dexterity that
comes from practice and cool brain,
the coupling was made. The locco-
motive wan reversed and the train
came to a standstill within fifty feet
of the bridgo. This is the way ono
an saved many lives.

ague, billions disorders, jaundice, dys-
IM-psia and alt discos** of the liver, blood
and Htouinch, when all other remedies
have fail ’d, by using Prof. UnUmette's
French Liver Pail, which is n quick and
|H-riuuiicnt cure for those disorders. Ask
your druggist for the great remedy, and
take no other, and if he does not keep it
send £1 50 in a letter to the French Pud
AtUnU CooRtitutiun.
Mr, Charlos Estes, of Augusta, who
is now traveling tho continent oYor as
an apostlo of manufacturing, says:—
“Every thousand dollars pat into cot
ton factories will comfortably support
fivo pooplo 1”
Tho statistics show that $1,000 giv
en to philanthropic purposes will
hardly support fivo pooplo ono yoar.
It costs $200 per head to support a
pauper, or $1,000 for five.
But $1,000 put into a cotton facto
ry will givo to the fivo pooplo it sup
ports tho swcotcst broad of earth—
that oarnod by honest labor.
Put iuto almshouses, it gives its sti
pendiaries tho bitter broad of charity.
In tho first case it builds np tho
country, supports schools and stores,
nnd makes idlo hands bnsy. In tbo
last, it stagnates, paralyzes, impedes.
Mouey put into an asylum doos its
work ono year aud is gouo. Put into
a cotton factory it is nn iuvostmont,
that supports its fivo pooplo yoars nf-
tor, gives its owner a bandsomo divi
dend, aud then comes back to him
auimpnired.
Tho man who invests iu cotton fac
tories, then, is a true philanthropist
in effect if not in purpose. Tho re
turns show that factories pay, in tbo
South, 22 per cent per annum divi
dend. Where will philanthropy pay
better ? _
A Helping Hand.
The poor givo more than tho rich.
This proposition hoi Is good as a gen
eral principle. Money is by no moans
the only thing to give in this world;
neither do largo gifts Deccssurily con
tribute more to tbo bappincis of the
receiver than small gifts. Go iuto
any country nnd converso with tho
people. Ask who ministers most to
their happiness. You will very likely
bo told of somo venerated clergyman,
whose salary has never been more
than enough to barely support him;
or some poor widow, who goes from
house to honso, liko a ministering an
gel, wherever sorrow and suffering
demnud consolation and relief. It is
tudonishiug how much ouo without
mcney can give. A kind word, a
helping hand, tho warm sympathy
that rejoices with thoso who do re
joice ami weeps with those who weep.
No uinn is so moor, no woman hi so
poor, as not to ue ablo to contribute
largely to tho happiness of those
around them.

steady industry aud close attention to
business, to keep np with the wooes*
